My gambit to allow my daughter to play Super Mario Jamboree seems to be paying off as she just shouted "I'M STARTING TO HATE THIS GAME" and all I can do was nod in approval.

every single week they're throwing this guy a special oval office love-in that appears to be the presidential equivalent of letting your dog scarf an entire big mac and fries before that last trip to the vet
Pirro: "Mr President, there is in this room a group of people who love you, who believe in you, and who are so proud to be in this Oval Office and to be part of this amazing day because you have changed the course of America."

we didn't immediately get a single all-time folk rock ballad out of the big boat getting stuck, huge L for millennials and zoomers
Ok I had no idea the Edmund Fitzgerald was a contemporary thing for the song, this is like his Toby Keith 9/11 song but about transporting taconite pellets

For my first piece back from vacation, I blogged about the people who moved from Texas to Russia to escape gay people and then found out living in Russia kind of sucks:

They left Texas for Russia to escape 'LGBT indoctrination.' Turns out, it sucks.
Their Texas towns had too much "DEI" and "LGBT indoctrination." So they moved to Russia and became influencers.

CVS is best thought of as a kind of interactive museum exhibit where you can experience everything that has gone badly wrong with American capitalism.
You almost have to respect how CVS keeps frantically changing their systems like every other month and each time it gets progressively worse

I think the thing that really made the Joyce Carol Oates tweet sting so bad is that it's a nerd power fantasy, this devasting, eloquent putdown that hurts worse than anything a bully can physically do to you, and that's the kind of thing he thinks he's supposed to be doing

[transly] feel what now?
One thing the NYC mayoral race underscored for me is how easily the phrase "I don't feel safe" can be weaponized. It's an argument I would hesitate ever to use again, even for a good cause. I hope we can all agree that we have the right to BE safe. Maybe we should leave it at that.

American elections are determined by three questions: how many Republicans and Democrats are there, how motivated are they to vote, and how are the idiots feeling.

I still take issue with "it's not center vs. left, it's don't fight vs. fight," because there are several things the center can't wait to not fight on, such as transgender rights.
